Liverpool operates differently from other Premier League giants, focusing on making strategic transfers at smart prices while considering both present needs and future potential.
This approach has contributed to the smooth transition from Jürgen Klopp to Arne Slot. Klopp’s squad overhaul last season set the team up perfectly for Slot to advance their progress.
One example of Liverpool’s forward-thinking strategy is their acquisition of Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili. Although he is currently with the La Liga side, he will join Liverpool next summer once the season ends.
The arrival of Mamardashvili raises questions about the future of Alisson Becker, who has been Liverpool’s first-choice keeper and earns £225,000 a week.
According to Spanish source Fichajes, Liverpool is considering facilitating Alisson’s departure next summer, ideally to a Saudi Pro League club.
Despite this, Alisson, at 31, may opt to remain at Liverpool for another season. If he does stay, Liverpool could either integrate Mamardashvili gradually or send him out on loan.
Ultimately, Mamardashvili represents Liverpool’s long-term vision, and with additional experience, he could be poised to succeed Alisson as the club’s top goalkeeper.
